TARZAN 1 of THE APES ByEDGAE BICE BURROUGHS

begun Tnmr. After the death in 1690 of John Clayton. Ix>rd Greyotoke. and hi* wife, J-ady Alice, in the African juncle*, their infant son. Tarzan.. is reared by an ape which placed her own dead babe in the cradle. At 18 years Tarzan has learned to read English bookß in his father's cabin, but can speak only ape language. He finds hie fathers photo, diary and a locket. As the diary is in French. Tarzan does not learn the riddle of his strange life. Mbonra and his tribe of savages invade territory near Tarzan* home. He keeps them alarmed with his secret pranks. A ship bearing white passengers anchors near by. On his cabin Tarzan poets a notice forbidding destruction of his treasurers. Without revealing his identity, he saves Jane Porter and her colored maid. Esmeralda from death by a lioness. William Cedi Clayton, son of the then Lord Greystoke. searches for .Prof. ArchimedeAQ. Porter, the girl's father, and his secretary, who are lost in the forest, but fails to find them. They fall from a tree where Tarzan lifted them to escape an approaching lion. GO ON WITH THE STOUT Mr. Philander lifted his other eye out of the mud, and gazed in speechless rage at Professor Porter. Then ; he attempted to rise; nor could there have been any more surprised than he when his efforts were Immediately crowned With marked success. He was still bursting with rage, however, at the cruel Injustice of Professor Porter’s Insinuation, and was on the point of rendering a tart rejoinder when his eyes fell upqn a strange figure standing a few pace3 away, scrutinizing them intently. Professor Porter had recovered his shiny silk hat, which he had brushed carefully upon the sleeve of his coat and replaced upon Ills head. When he saw Mr. Philander pointing to something behind him he turned to behold a giant, naked but for a loin cloth and a few metail ornaments, standing motionless before him. “Good evening, sir:” said the professor, lifting his hat. For reply the giant motioned for them to follow him, and set off up the beach in the ■ direction from which they had recently come. "i fhnlk it the part of dlcretion to follow him,” said Mr, Philander. "Tut, tut, Mr. Philander,” reI turned the professor. "A short time since you were advancing most logical argument in substantiation of your theory that the camp lay dl- ■ rectly south of us. I was skeptical, but you finally convinced me; so now I am positive that toward the south we must travel to reach our friends. Therefore, I shall, continue BOUth.” •‘But, Professor - Porter, this man may know better than either of us. He seems to be Indigenous to this part of the world. Let us at least follow him for a short distance.” "Tut, ■ tut, Mr. Philander,” repeated the professor. "I am a dis- • ficult irfan to convince, but when J once convinced my decision is unj alterable. I shall continue in the j proper direction, if I have to circumambulate the continent of Africa j to reach my destination.” * j F*ftrther argument was Interrupted by Tarzan, who, seeing that these j strange men were not following him, | had returned to their side. | Again he beckoned to therfl* but still they stood In argument. Presently the ape-man lost patience with their stupid ignorance. He grasped the frightened Mr. Phi-

BACK IRIS RUSH OUT KIDNEYS

When your kidneys hurt and your back feels sore, don’t get scared and proceed to load your stomach with a lot of diugs that excite the kidneys and irritate the entire urinary tract. Keep your kidneys clean like you keep your bowels clean, by flushing them with a mild, harmless salts which helps to remove the body's urinous waste and stimulate them to their normal activity. The function of the kidneys is to filter the blood. In 24 hours they strain from it 600 grains of acid and waste, so we can readily understand the vital importance of keeping the kidneys active. Drink lots of good water—you can’t drink too much; also get from any pharmacist about four ounces of Jad Salts. Take ■*. tablespoonful in a glass of water iiefore breakfast each morning for a few days and your kidneys may then act fine. This famous salts is made from add of grapes and lemon*'- juice, combined with lithia and has been used for years to help clean and stimulate I- clogged kidneys; also to neutralize the acids in the system so they are no longer a source of irritation, thus often relieving bladder weakness. Jad Salts is Inexpensive; can not injure; makes a delightful effervescent lithia-water drink which everyone should take now and then to help keep their kidneys clean and active. Try this; also keep up the water drinking, and no doubt you will wonder what became of your kidney trouble and backache. By all means have your physician examine your kidneys at least twice a year.—Advertisement.

lander by the shoulder, and before that worthy gentleman knew whether he was being killed or merely maimed for life, Tarzan had tied one end of his rope securely about Mr. Philander’s neck. “Tut, tut, Mr. Philander,” remonstrated Professor Porter; “it is most unbeseeming fn you to submit to such Indignities.” But scarcely were the words out of his mouth ere he, too, had been seized and seeureiy bound by the neck with the same rope. # Then Tarzan set off toward the north, leading the now thoroughly frightened professor and his secretary. In deathly silence they proceeded for what seemed hours to the two tired and hopeless old men; but presently as they topped a little rise of ground they were overjoyed to see the cabin lying before tljem, not a hundred yards distant. Here Tarzan released them, and poointing toward the little building, vanished Into the jungle beside beside them. t Most remarkable, most remarkable!” gasped the professor. “But you see, Mr. Philander, that I was quite right, as usual; and but for your stubbon wilfulness we should have escaped a series of most humiliating, not to say dangerous, accidents. Pray allow # yoursf to be gnided by a more mature and practical mind hereafter when in need of wise counsel.” Mr. Samuel T. Philander was too much relieved at the happy outcome of their adventure to take umbrage at the professors cruel fling. Instead he grasped his friend’s arm and hastened him forward in the direction of the cabin. It was a much relieved party of castaways that found Itself once more united. Dawn discovered them still recounting their-various adventures, and speculating upon the identity of the strange guardian and protector they had found on this savage shore. Esmeralda was positive that It was none other than- an angel of the Lord, sent down especially to watch over them. "Had you seem him devour t£e raw meat of the lion, Esmeralda,” laughed Clayton, “you would have thought him a very material angel.” - “Ah doan know nuffin’ ’bout dat, Marse Clayton.” rejoined Esmeralda; “but Ah 'specs de Lawd clean forgat to gib him any matches, He sent him down in sech a hurry to look after we-all. An’ he suttinly cain’t cook nuffin’ ’thout matches—no, sah.” ,

CHAPTER XVn Burials S IT was now quite light, the party, none of whom had •—-* eaten or slept since the previous morning, began to bestir themselves to prepare food. The mutineers of the Arrow had landed a small supply of dried meats, canned soups and vegetables, crackers, flour, tea and coffee for the five they had marooned, and’these were hurriedly drawn upon to satisfy the craving of long-famished appetites. The next task was to make the cabin habitable, and to thig end it was decided to at once remove the gruesome relics of the tragedy which had taken place there on some bygone day. / Professor Porter Mr. Philander were deeply Interested In examining the skeletons. The two larger, they utated, had belonged to a male' and female of one of v.he higher white races. The smallest skeleton was given but passing attention, as its location, in the crib, left no doubt as to ita_ having been the infant offspring of this unhappy couple. As they were preparing the skeleton of the man for burial, Clavton discovered a massive ring which* had evidently encircled the man’s finger at the time of his death. Picking it up to examine It, Clayton gave a cry of astonishment, , for the ring bore the crest of the House of Greystoke. At the same time, Jane Porter discovered the books in the cupboard and on opening to the llleaf of one of them saw the name, John Clayton, London. In a second book which she hurriedly examined was the single name, Greystoke. *‘Jw hy A Mr \S, layton ’” Bh ® cried, what does this mean? Here are the names of some of your own people in these books.” “And here,” he replied gravely “is the ring of the House of Greystoke, which has been lost since my uncle, John Clayton, the former Lord Greystoke. disappeared, presumabily lost at sea.” There is but one way to account for it/ Miss Porter,” said Clayton. "The late Lord Greystoke was not drowned. He died here in this cabin and this poor thing upon the floor is all that Is mortal of him.” “Then this must have been Lady Greystroke, ’ said Jane Porter reverently, indicating the poor mass of bones upon the bed. „ With deep reverence an dsolemnity the bodies of the late Lore and Lady Greystoke were buried beside their little African cabin, and between them was placed the tiny skeleton of the baby Kala, the ap€>. As Mr. Philander was placing the frail bones of the Infant in a bit of sail cloth, he examined the skull minutely. Then he called Professor Porter to his side, and the two argued in low tones for several minutes. “Most remarkable, most remarkable,” said Professor Porter. “Bless me,” said Mr. Philander, “we must acquaint Mr. Clayton with our discovery at once.” "Tut, tut, Mr. Philander, tut, tut!” remonstrated •Professor Archimedes Q. Poster. *' ‘Let tfie dead past bury its dead.’ ” \ * From the trees Tarzan of the Apes watched the solemn ceremony; but most of all he watched the sweet face and graceful figure of Jane Porter. In his savage, untutored breast new emotions were stirring. He could not fathom them. He wondered why he felt so great an interest in these people—why he had gone to such pains to save the three men. But he did not wonder* why

he had torn Sabor from the tender flesh of the strange girl. ' When the grave had been filled with earth the little party turned back toward the cabin, and Esmeralda, still peeping copiously for the two she had never heard of before today, and who had been dead twenty years, chanced to glance toward the harbor, Instantly her tears ceased. "Look at dem low down white trash out dere!” shfc shrilled, pointing toward the Arrow. "They aH’s a desecratin’ us, rights’ yere on dis~yer<) perverte i islan’.’’ And, sure enough, the Arrow was being worked toward the open sea, slowly, through the harbor’s entrance.

"They promised to leave us firearms and ammunition,” said Clayton. “The merciless beasts!” ‘lt Is the work of that fellow they call Snipes, I am sure,” said Jane Porter. “King was a scoundrel, but he had a little sense of humanity. If they had not killed him I know that he would have seen that we were properly provided for before they left us to our fate.” “I regret that they did not visit us' before sailing,” said Professor ■Porter. “I had purposed requesting them to leave the treasure with us, as shall be a ruined man if that is lost.” N Jane Porter looked at her father sadly. “Never mind, dear,” she said. “It wouldn’t have done any good, because it is solely for the treasure shat they killed their officers and landed us upon this awful shore.” “Tut, tut, child, tut, tut!" replied Professor PorteT. "You are a good child, but Inexperienced in practical matters,” and Professor Porter turned and walked siowly v away toward the Jungle,'\jls hands clasped beneath his long coat-tail and his eyes bent upon the ground. . His daughter watched him with a pathetic 'smile upon her Ups, and turning to Mr. Philander, she whispered: "Please don’t let him wander off again as he did yesterday. We depend upon you, you know, to keep a, close watch upon him.” Tarzan had seen the consternation depicted upon the faces of the little group as they witnessed the departure of the Arrow; so, as the ship was a wonderful novelty to him in addition, he determined to hasten odt to the point of land at the north of the harbors mouth and obtain a nearer view the boat, as well as to learn, if possible, the direction of its fight. There were some twenty men run-

nlng hither and thither about the deck, pulling and hauling on ropes. Tarzan watched the graceful movements of the ship in rapt admiration, and longed to be aboard her. Presently his keen eyes caught the faintest suspicion of smoke on the far northern horizon, and he wondered the cause of such a thing out on the sraat water. At about the same time the lookout on the Arrow must have discerned It, for In a few minutes Tarzan saw the sails being shifted and shortened. The ship came about, and presently he knew that she was beatirtg back towaydTTand.

A man; at the Jows was constantly heaving into the sea a rope to the end of which a small object was fastened. Tarzan wondered what the 'purpose of this action might be. At last the ship came up directly into the wind; the anchor was lowered; down -came the sails. There was great scurrying about on deck.’ A boat was lowered, and in it a great chest was placed. Then a dozen sailors bent to the oars and pulled rapidly toward the point where Tarzan crouched In the branches of a tree. It was but a few minutes later tha,t the boat touched the beach. The men Jumped out and lifted the great chest to the sand. They were on the north side of the point so that their presence was concealed frpm those at the cabin. “Here is a good place,” said the rat-faced sailor, indicating a spot beneath Tarzan’s tree.

“It is as good as any,” replied one of his companions. "If they catch us with the treasure aboard It will all be confiscated anyway. We might as well bury It here on the chance that some of ua will escape the gallows to tome back and enjoy it later. "Hurry, you!” cried Snipes ”stow It!” retorted one of the men In k surly tone. "You’re no admiral, you shrimp." "I’m Cap’n here, though, I’ll have you to understand, you swab,” shrieked Snipes, with a volley of frightful oaths. „ ' "You fellows dig here,” said Snipes, indicating a spot beneath the tree. “And while you’re digging,’ Peter kin be a-makln’ a map of the location, so’s we kin again. You, Tom, and Bill, take a couple more down and fetch up the chest." “Wot are you a-goin’ to do?” asked he of the previous altercation. “Just boss?” "Git busy there,” growled Snipes> "You didn’t think yojir Cap’n was a-goin’ to dig with a shovel, did you?” "Do yous mean to say that you

don’t Intend to take a shovel, snd l'.nd a hand with .this work? jTou’re shoulder's not hurted so all-fired bad as that,” said Tarrant, the sailor who had before spoken. “Not by a Sight,” replied Snipes, fingering the butt of his revolver nervously. “Then, by God,” replied Tarrant, “If you won’t lake a shovel you’ll take a pick ax.” With the words he raised his pick above his head, and, yrlth a mighty blow, burled the point in Snipe’s brain. For a moment the men stood silently looking at the result of their fellow’s grim humor. Then one of them spoke.

"Served the skunk Jolly well right,” he said. When they had a trench of ample size to bury the chest, Tarrant suggested that they enlarge It and inter Snipe’s body on top of the chest. “It might ’elp fool any as ’appened to be diggin’ ’ereabouts,” he. explained. , ' The others saw the cunhing of the" suggestion, and so the trench was lengthened to accommodate the corpse, and in the center a deeper hole was excavated for the box, which was first wrapped in sail cloth and then lowered to its place, which brought its atop about a foot below the bottom of the grave. Earth was shoveled in and tramped down about the chest until the bottom of the grave showed level and uniform. Two of the men rolled the ratfaced corpse unceremoniously into the grave, after first stripping it of its weapons and -various other articles which the several members of the party coveted for their own.
